Our supporters called America .gov “Selective Intelligence.” We agree. They’re rushing to change its answers to match what Trump wants to hear.

Brian Krassenstein 👏👏👏 Jack Smith just told the Truth LOUD and CLEAR! “Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation. “If asked whether to prosecute a former president today based on the same facts, I would do so
I know this will shock everyone but Eric Schmitt is still wrong — there were *six* NBA games that night, not one. Hawks/Hawkeyes confusion remains the likely explanation. www.basketball-reference.com/boxscores/?m...
I think it's important to note Schmitt has staff he relies on from both his personal office as well as the well-staffed Committee's majority office. This *big-Hawks-game-plan* had to have gone through a dozen people first and no one caught it as being, well, the dumbest god damn thing of all time.
It’s not ‘voluntary’ that manufacturers include seatbelts in cars. It’s not ‘voluntary’ that new medicines gain FDA approval before hitting the market. Congress has the ability and responsibility to regulate AI.
House Speaker Johnson says he hopes AI guardrails are 'voluntary' amid Congress inaction
Scoop — I've ID'd the two men sitting behind Sen. Eric Schmitt during his botched attack on Jack Smith this morning. Ethan Harper (left) is Chief Counsel to Schmitt, and Andrew Ceonzo (right) is Counsel to Schmitt and the Senate Judiciary Committee.
A phenomenal moment in the Senate. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta. Smith denies it. Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury. Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland. WATCH IN FULL, UNINTERRUPTED
Big names in AI and Silicon Valley tech announced yesterday that they're launching a boarding academy for 16 to 22 year olds. (Would you trust the people in this scene with keeping an eye on minors?) theacademysf.com
"We were letting actual 8th graders sneak into our wild drug and sex parties at our Silicon Valley AI group house" is the most eyebrow-raising quote among many from that New York Times piece, IMO. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/21/t...
Adam Kidan went to federal prison with Jack Abramoff and was ordered to repay $21.7 million. Trump pardoned him in July. His money turned up in eight Republican Senate campaigns. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-pard...

I mean, honest to god, Sen. Eric Schmitt (correctly spelled) literally concocted a whole conspiracy between Jack Smith and Fani Willis all because he didn't know the difference between the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes. You're literally next door to Iowa, bro. Like how dumb are you
extremely weird shit during the Jack Smith hearing -- Sen. Eric Schmitt's team briefly displays a poster board that Schmitt claims contains evidence Smith committed perjury, but then Schmitt's team takes it down before anybody can read it and refuses to show Smith what it says
Klobuchar has Schmitt dead to rights: "The game in fact was in Maryland. For a senator to have false information & imply, based on confusion about name of a team, that you were in another city & somehow involved that day in what was happening in Georgia & call you a 'dirtbag' deserves an apology"
I don't even want this malignant sociopath talking about nuclear strikes on cities, much less having the authority and capacity to personally order them. Which, um, he has.
asked about gas prices, Trump says "if you want to see turmoil and a travesty, let them take out a city with a nuclear weapon ... let them hit us with a nuclear weapon"
What does it mean that someone who believes a fourth-grader should be forced to give birth to her rapist’s child is now leading the anti-abortion mainstream?

Wow, I bet this will do as much for Iowa as his first-term Foxconn deal did for Wisconsin!
Exclusive: President Trump will announce a Minnesota company’s plan to build a $15 billion steel mill in Iowa, as he looks to counter voter frustration with the economy ahead of the midterm elections.

This is an entirely new phenomenon because before the vaccine, most women who survived measles were immune because they had it when they were young. But now, idiots who refuse to get vaccinated are giving birth to babies with measles. Two babies have died. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.
Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.

Data uncovers a stark reality: Donald Trump’s base is fundamentally split
While MAGA-identifying voters view the economy favorably, over half of non-MAGA Trump voters say the cost of living is the worst it's ever been—a disconnect that could reshape the upcoming midterms.

These people make Marie Antoinette look connected to the people and empathetic by comparison. They laugh at what their own voters are going through as they continue to mock them as they enrich themselves and have a great time.
